Hey everyone, got a Unifi Dream Machine Pro (still in shipping), Switch Lite 8 POE and 2 U6-LR. This is my first time using Ubiquiti. Had a mesh wifi Deco M9 Plus setup before. Can anyone direct/guide me on how to setup the connection? I'm using TM Unifi 500mb/s. I believe it'll be PPPOE and VLAN. Many thanks in advance.

Hi, can i ask if i want to upgrade my current wireless AP, how to choose for a wireless AP?

I am leaning towards Ubiquiti because of it's POE functionality.
The obvious recommendation now is uap-ac-pro but it's quite aged yet no obvious discount still.

I am using an edgerouter x now, using the POE to power a Mikrotik wireless AP, very aged now.

looking at current lineup would be U6-LR or U6-Lite, i think they might fulfill my needs.
If i were to setup mesh network in future, can i use older AP that is running on wifi5 to link with newer wifi6 network?

Just go for the U6 versions. I managed to setup my UDM Pro yesterday. U6-LR is so good! Using 2, one at the third floor and another on the first floor.

Have to wait for Dream Machine Pro SE for PoE support... but it's sold out at the UI Early Access EU store...

This is only POE, not POE+. You won't be able to power a U6-LR with this.

Hi everyone,

Anyone care to share their Ubiquiti Access Point RF settings? Specifically the Channel Width and the Transmit Power? Right now I'm setting 2.4ghz at HT20 and 5ghz at HE40. Both are using Auto Transmit Power. Thanks!
